Howard Stern is returning to SiriusXM with one live show a week, plus a new deal with HBO Max.
Stern returns to his longtime SiriusXM Sept. 14 and will embark on one new show a week, airing Monday, down from two per week. Additionally, Stern will adapt his live SiriusXM show into a streamable episode for HBO Max, alongside extras. The Howard Stern Show on HBO Max will debut Sept. 17, with episodes released on Thursdays.
“There’s simply no one like Howard, and the start of his new season is another exciting chapter in an extraordinary run,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “For more than two decades at SiriusXM, he’s continued to evolve, surprise audiences and deliver the kind of conversations and moments that only Howard can. We are proud that Howard chose to continue with SiriusXM through 2028 for his exclusive live show and deep library of classic Howard, and that Howard, HBO Max and SiriusXM have now teamed up to create a compelling new video version of his show.”
The news comes after Stern struck a new three year-contract with SiriusXM amid rumors of a retirement, or a show cancellation, which Stern pranked his listeners about by suggesting that Andy Cohen would take over his channel.
With the one show a week, Howard Stern’s Howard 101 channel is leaving the SiriusXM lineup, with Stern’s content airing on his remaining channel, Ch. 100. Radio Andy, hosted by Cohen, will move to Ch. 101 from Ch. 102.
On Sept. 14, Howard will also unveil a new lineup for his Howard 100 channel, which will include Wrap Up Wednesday, an expanded version of Howard’s Wrap Up Show hosted by Gary Dell’Abate and Jon Hein. The Howard Stern section of the SiriusXM app is also expanding to include Howard Stern Decades for access to Stern’s content from the 80’s, 90’s, 00’s and 10’s.
